Wax Heaven
Well, there goes our one win for the year.
The Miami Dolphins traded away Jason Taylor to the Washington Redskins last night. As many might know, Jason and Dolphins management were not on good terms because of Jason’s appearance on ‘Dancing With the Stars’. I guess he was supposed to be training or something.
At 33 years of age I don’t know how much Jason has left ...

When Bill Parcells was hired by the Miami Dolphins as V.P. of football operations, it was widely presumed that he would be running the show.
But, on paper, great pains were taken to ensure that the Tuna wasn’t in charge, primarily so that Jeff Ireland could be hired away from the Cowboys with the promise of “final [...]

Dancing with the Skins: Jason Taylor traded to Washington —
Footballguys Blog
It’s hard to believe that it took the loss of Philip Daniels to season-ending knee surgery to get the always active Daniel Snyder to trade for sack master Jason Taylor. But shortly after Daniels was lost for the season in 7-on-7 drills in practice, the team put together a package (2nd and 6th round draft picks) to acquire the 33-year old defensive end from the Miami Dolphins.

Does anyone play their entire career with one team anymore? Damn…
Jason Taylor could have kept his talent in Miami being that I’m an Eagles fan. A 6′6″ defensive end coming around the corner is not good news for the NFC East.
Phillip Daniels was hurt on the first play of drills Sunday and Dan Snyder moved quickly to acquire the 33 yr. old, ...
Redskins Trade for Jason Taylor —
East Coast Bias
Adding a Pro Bowl DE will help the Skins this year, but not two years from now. Very quickly after Daniels' torn ACL, the Redskins have acquired Jason Taylor from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a 2nd round 2009 draft pick and a 6th round 2010 pick. Given that the Dolphins were rumored to be asking for a 1st round pick, the Redskins probably got good value in this trade. The Dolphins ...
